I
got drunk and fell asleep atop the
sheets but luckily i
left the
heater on. And in my dreams i
wrote the
best song that i've ever written…can't remember how it goes. I
stayed drunk and fell awake and i
was cycling on a
plane and far away i
heard you say you liked me. We drifted to a
party – cool. The
people went to arty school. They made their paints by mixing acid wash and lemonade In my brain I
re-arrange the
letters on the
page to spell your name I
found an ezra pound and made a
bet that if i
found a
cigarette i'd drop it all and marry you. Just then a
song comes on: “you can't always get what you want” – the
rolling stones, oh woe is we, the
irony! The
stones became the
moss and once all inhibitions lost, the
hipsters made a
mission to the
farm. We drove by tractor there, the
yellow straw replaced our hair, we laced the
dairy river with the
cream of sweet vermouth. In my brain I
re-arrange the
letters on the
page to spell your name You said “we only live once” so we touched a
little tongue, and instantly i
wanted to… I
lost my train of thought and jumped aboard the
Epping as the
doors were slowly closing on the
world. I
touched on and off and rubbed my arm up against yours and still the
inspector inspected me. The
lady in the
roof was living proof that nothing really ever is exactly as it seems. In my brain I
re-arrange the
letters on the
page to spell your name We caught the
river boat downstream and ended up beside a
team of angry footballers. I
fed the
ducks some krill then we were sucked against our will into the
welcome doors of the
casino. We drank green margaritas, danced with sweet senoritas, and we all went home as winners of a
kind. You said “I guarantee we'll have more fun, drink till the
moon becomes the
sun, and in the
taxi home I'll sing you a
triffids song!” In my brain I
re-arrange the
letters on the
page to spell your name
